Maintaining complete control over your golf club starts with your golf grip. Having a golf grip that’s a bit tacky allows you to keep control, apply less pressure to the grip, and get better feedback. After searching for a really tacky golf grip, I found a Japanese company that sells high end golf grips in the U.S. These grips are tacky, soft or firm, and come in various sizes and color options. The company is NO1 Grip, and they made…
I’m always searching for high quality golf footwear. I’m a firm believer that if your feet are comfortable your round of golf is much easier. I recently found a golf company that offers some really high-performance golf shoes, and after reading about their golf shoes on their website, I had to try their shoes. They offer both microfiber uppers and all leather uppers, so just to be clear I tested their 001 golf shoes which are the microfiber uppers. Here’s…
I’ve used a range finder for about 5 years, and as you can see from the picture below, the magnetic strap I’ve used is pretty bulky. Now, to be fair the bulky strap worked very well, but at times it would slip over my button to shoot the flag and bottom line was just bulky. The good news is that I found a company that sells range finder magnetic straps that are much less bulky. I think it would…
I clean my golf clubs during my round and after my round. I feel that the cleaner the golf clubs are the better my chances of having the golf ball go where I want it to go, yet I see so many playing partners with really dirty golf clubs. I’m not sure why they don’t clean their golf clubs grooves as it’s so simple to do. I just found a company that makes a really cool golf club and ball…
I have tried many golf gloves over the years, and I have found honestly only a few that really fit extremely well. I have bought gloves from online companies, big box warehouse stores, and from well-known glove manufacturers you see in every pro shop. So, when I found a company on social media that promoted their golf gloves as “premium” and cost much less than others I had to try them. Here’s what the company says about their golf gloves……
With some many people using the same brand of golf ball, you must mark your golf ball so you don’t hit someone else’s golf ball. And I know some people will say that never happens, however, it happens more than you think, and recently just happened to myself. I also see a lot of people using a single line on their golf balls, and I have also done that also. The only issue with that is when people use the…
The first thing I always say when I’m either getting a lesson or buying a new driver is…I want more distance. I’m pretty sure everyone says this and wants more distance; as hitting the ball further has so many advantages. So does buying a new driver help? The answer I think is if your driver is over 5 years old, maybe, however buying a new driver every year will not get you the extra 10 yards every new driver promises. I…
I’ve suffered from lower back pain for over 10 years. I’m sure golfing 4-5 days a week is not helping the situation, so I’m always on the lookout for something that may help ease the pain. I’ve tried the kinesiology tapes, roll-on’s, creams, and stretching. I think it’s helping some but the back pain is still there. I just found a roll on that really helps with my back pain. The product is from ASYSTEM, and it’s called… Radical Relief Gel Roll-On.…
There are golfers that wear plain shorts, plain polos, and always have the standard black grip on their golf clubs. Basically, what I call the everyday golfer and that’s not a bad thing, however there are so many ways to add some style to your game. There are so many ways to add some pizazz to your clothes, why not add some to your golf grips? I have found just the company that offers just that; golf grips that look…
I continue to search for quality golf balls that don’t cost $50 per dozen. Fortunately, there’s a company that makes a tour quality, 3-piece golf ball, at 30% less than the more well-known golf balls so I knew I had to try them. The Odin Golf X1 golf ball is a 3-piece golf ball, highly durable with a Urethane cover, and with high compression. The question is how is the distance, spin, and distance control compared to my normal higher…
